Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Please provide support for DNS aliases on the certificate when doing DNS challenge certificate requests, I’m specifically referring to the DuckDNS option; but I suppose this would be valid for any provider.

Describe the solution you'd like

  • Have a DuckDNS domain, example: example-domain.duckdns.org
  • Have your own domain which is a CNAME reference to the DuckDNS domain: awesome.example.com -> example-domain.duckdns.org
  • In NGinx Proxy Manager, have an option to add additional aliases to the certificate request (potentially by typing/selecting them manually, but would be better if it would automatically pick up the other DNS names from the configuration).
  • Certificate is then issued to the DuckDNS names, with alternative names as the additional DNS names.

Describe alternatives you've considered

There is a HomeAssistant Add-On which already does something similar (LetsEncrypt certificates for DuckDNS domains) -> https://github.com/home-assistant/addons/tree/master/duckdns
See original implementation details at: https://github.com/home-assistant/addons/pull/1253
